Music is Math
Music is Math was created alongside my extended essay. It explores the concepts of hauntology through the evolution of electronic music. Both my essay and video piece studies the development of avant-garde audio processing techniques and how Boards of Canada can be described as the forefathers of Hauntology as its own musical genre and how this was achieved through their stylistic and thematic choices. Within this piece I aimed to visualise this development in audio through a range of video processing techniques such as data-bending, sampling, collage, degraded technology etc. Following chronologically from Field recordings to Musique Concrete, Crate Digging culture, House Music, Music Collage and how these movements inspired the music of Boards of Canada.
